Business Funding & Incentive Programs 5. Tourism Promotion Grant Program # Tourism Promotion Grant Program Tourism is an important part of the City of Grants Pass’ economic success, and as such, the City of Grants Pass designates 12 percent of eligible tourism funds to the Tourism Promotion Grant Program.
This program supports promotional activities that will lead to recurring tourism by attracting tourists and increasing overnight stays. Grants that focus on increasing tourism during off-peak periods, generate economic growth from tourists coming from outside a 50-mile radius, and provide increased economic benefit for local businesses and non-profit organizations are the most competitive.
This program has a spring and fall cycle, dependent upon available funds. **The current open call for applications will run from 8:00 am on July 1, 2026, through 11:59 pm on August 12, 2026. ** The grants range from a minimum of $2,500 to $5,000.
No match is required for the grant. Some example project areas that will receive priority ranking may include: a. Recurring events – Events attracting people from outside the area, leading to economic growth and potential to occur on a regular cycle (i.e. annually).
These may include events in the areas of sport and athletics, arts and culture, food, industry-focused, conference/convention, community-focused celebration, etc. b. Outdoor recreation - hiking, mountain biking, road biking, rafting, trail systems c. Historically significant – museums, architecture, culturally significant sites, honoring historic industry (e.g. logging, mining, railroad, etc.) d.
